  •  QTL Experiment in Brief
    Animals:Animals were from a Holstein-Friesian x Jersey cross.
     Breeds associated:
    Design:Animals were genotyped for 237 microsatellite markers and 6634 SNPs and analyzed for milk beta-carotene content. BCO2 was genotyped as a candidate gene for an identified QTL.
    Analysis:QTL mapping was performed using regression methodology in a half-sib model.
